Sorry, this is a bug report without a patch.
I don't know if anyone can run Octave in Cygwin 1.3.4 successfully. I updated the Cygwin into version 1.3.4. And, both Octave-2.1.34 and 2.1.35 will crash when using some complicated functions in Octave. I try to find what's wrong by run octave in the old Cygwin snapshot (which I can found) I find that it works great under snapshot-20010929. but will crash under snapshot-20011001. I almost sure the change in environ.cc(v.1.60 20010930) cause the Octave fail to find its internal environment variables. Hope this is helpful to find why Octave doesn't work in Cygwin 1.3.4. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
